Senate immigration bill includes nearly $300 million in slush funds for immigrants' rights groups, in language drafted by the former policy chief for one such organization

  • The National Council of La Raza is likely to benefit from grant money set aside in an immigration bill drafted by its former policy director
  • Legislation passed in the Senate would exclude three-time DUI offenders from a path to citizenship, but two-time drunk drivers would be acceptable
  • Passport forgers would no longer be prosecuted for making a single fake travel document, with the bar being set at three
  • Document counterfeiters whose materials are used to obtain passports would only be jailed if they contributed to at least 10 phony passports

Haven't seen this reported elsewhere. But quite frankly, I find this disturbing, consdiering what we had to go through collectively to be here legally!

Where do I get a piece of this slush fund?

The modern conservative is engaged in one of man's oldest exercises in moral philosophy; that is, the search for a superior moral justification for selfishness. 

-John Kenneth Galbraith

that's easy - form a corporation with a minority as the CEO,

then go out for competitive bid for 'the stuff' the slush fund is tagged to handle.

Now, this requires some work and effort, so if'n yer not up for it, don't expect anything.

Sometimes my language usage seems confusing - please feel free to 'read it twice', just in case !
Ya know, you can find the answer to your question with the advanced search tool, when using a PC? Ditch the handphone, come back later on a PC, and try again.
